BRING TO RUIN have been together since October 2010 and are from Wales, UK and play a mix of hardcore, crust and punk. At the time of recording, the band was composed of Jon on drums and vocals, Ross on vocals, Paul on guitar and vocals and Dave on bass.

“Intro” is a nice instrumental track that gets you in the groove for the rest of the album with its more moshy hardcore sound, then they jump into “Curse Of The Innocent” which slams you into the back of your chair and gets the proceedings of to an intense start. “Capitalist Eyes” amps up the fury a few more notches with the band really trying to destroy their instruments on this track, ” Economist Psychopath” is the longest track on the album at just over three and a half minutes and BRING TO RUIN don’t slow done at all, they actually made this one of my favorite songs on here with the way they gave everyone a bit of a spotlight in a way. The bass has a lot of presence on this album which is a treat since a lot of bands bury the bass in the mix, the guitar has some great leads that are thick and juicy, the drumming is pummeling, and the vocals are shouted, but you can understand what Ross is saying and his gruff shouts are angry sounding and it fits perfectly into the mix. “Stale Motion”, “The Rot”, “Cut And Run”, “Resentment”, and “Career Suicide” were all stellar tracks on this album.

There’s a great bunch of songs on here, with power and excitement galore. The band really goes out of its way to give you an album that really has no weak tracks, no slow songs, just balls to the wall music that will make any pit a lot of fun, and hard to leave.
